Register As Web Endpoint (AVREGWEB)

The AVREGWEB command is used to register an IBM i system as a web endpoint. This allows users to access the system's antivirus services through the web interface.

Server IP/DNS Name

Specifies the IP address or DNS name of the server that will be used to register this system as a web endpoint. The server must already have the Powertech Antivirus Web Server software installed before it can be registered.

Server Key

Specifies the API key that was generated by the server.

TIP: This key can be found in the web interface under "Settings/Endpoint Registration". This displays the API key. Use Copy key to clipboard to copy the API key to the clipboard from where it can be pasted into this parameter.
Server Port

Specifies the port number on which the server is listening for incoming connections from clients. When *DFT is specified, the default value of 8998 is used.

Alias Name

Specifies an alias name that can be used instead of this system's IP/DNS name in the web interface. This makes it easier for users to remember and use the system's alias name instead of having to type in the full IP/DNS name each time they want to access the system's antivirus services.

Client IP/DNS Name

Specifies the IP address or DNS name of this system. This value will be determined automatically when *DFT is specified.

Folder Path

Specifies the path within the system's file system where the Powertech Antivirus software should look for the files needed to use the system as a web endpoint. When *DFT is specified, the default path will be used.

Registration Tags

Allows the user to assign tags to the endpoint that is being registered. Tags allow actions that are performed on Powertech Antivirus Server to be selectively applied to groups of endpoints. One or more tags can be specified. To specify multiple tags, separate tags with a semicolon. Examples: ‘tag1;tag2’ or ‘ibm_i;production;emea;accounting’.
